The chromosomes condense as the nuclear membrane begins to disappear during prophase, the first phase of cell division.
What stage does chromosomal condensation begin?
- The process of cell division is classified into 4 stages, prophase, metaphase, anaphase, and telophase.
- The cell starts to prepare itself to separate the chromatids and divide during prophase, the initial stage of mitosis. The nuclear membrane and nucleolus disintegrate during prophase, and the chromosomes condense. At the cell's opposing poles, the centrioles and spindle fibers start to develop.
- The parent cell's chromosomes, which were duplicated during S phase, condense and get much smaller than they did during interphase during prophase.
- The prophase is the beginning of the cell division process, which is characterized by the condensation of chromosomes and the disappearance of the nuclear membrane.
